Little Red Songtext
von Kate Nash

Everybody took everything that they could
And they made a little town out of stones and out of wood
And they made a little king out of plasticine
And they threw the rules away but they kept the wisdom in
And all of the birds and the bees lived so peacefully
And all of the babies they slept so gently until

Little Red, Little Red, Little Red, Little Red
Little Red, Little Red, Little Red, Little Red
Little Red, Little Red, Little Red, Little Red
Little, Little Red came knocking

Little garden, how do I make your flowers grow
When I already do everything that I know?
I bring you sunshine and I bring you rain but still you refrain
All the other gardens are so full of flowers
They′re so colouful, yeah, I spend all these hours
Trying to make you as beautful as them but still you refrain


Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock
Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, scratch
And a knock, knock, knock, knock, knock
Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, scratch

And a knock, knock, knock, knock, knock
Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, scratch
And a knock, knock, knock, knock, knock
Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, scratch

Little girl, why are you crying
Just because the flowers in your garden are dying?
There's so much that you could be doing
And all of your neighbours
Well, they haven′t got a clue

Come on with me, we'll have a little bit of fun
Yeah, it's not too dangerous and we won′t hurt anyone
Yeah, we′ll cause some havoc between the birds and the bees, yeah we'll
We′ll paint the town red and we'll shake the trees

Oh, come on with me and I′ll show you a good time
All you have to do is a jump and a climb
Yeah, I'll take you over to the other side of town
There′s so much to do there and nobody wears a crown


Should I go or should I stay?
My flowers are dying and I'm sick and tired anyway
This boy seems kind of cool
His jeans are kind of low
Well, I think I'll go

Jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, jump
Jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, climb
And a jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, jump
Jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, climb

And a jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, jump
Jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, climb
And a jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, jump
Jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, climb

Oh let′s pack a picnic and then go for a drive
We′ll go to a funfair and go on all the rides
We'll climb up a mountain and we′ll take in the sights
We'll jump in a plane and fly

If you want you can come back to mine
We′ll drink some coffee and you can spend the night
We'll do anything that makes you smile
′Cause your smile is beautiful and it makes me happy
'Cause your smile is beautiful and it makes me happy

Well, this little girl, she grew up and moved away
And she, she lived her life full of risk and full of play
And she, she lived her life with so much to say
And her flowers, they grow more beautiful every day
